The BYODOS group will be completing a literature review proposal on a current distance and site-based educational practice, (BYOD) Bring Your Own Device and how (F/OSS) Free/Open Source Software is making these devices very practical in K-12 grade education. This project will examine the research on BYOD and F/OSS in grades K-12, and search for possible gaps in the research that may lead to future research on the topic. This technology trend is very popular as more K-12 learning environments are seeking to offer their students competitive technology skills, but still need to work with tight operational budgets. This proposal will investigate how learning environments are integrating technology through BYOD and how these devices are highly effective using F/OSS. This literature review will provide an overview of BYOD and F/OSS, introduction to our project with associated key terms, the theoretical design for our research, the research that supports our literature review, implementation of BYOD with F/OSS programs, professional development for schools integrating 1-to-1 device initiatives, and finally our conclusion with exam questions.
